So all the workers that travel over the Mexican border to work in the US shouldn't be covered under UHC, correct? Since, they don't pay US income taxes....
First off, quit referring to ANYTHING CURRENTLY BEING DEBATED IN WASHINGTON as "UHC" (Universal Health Care). This continues to be distorted in the hopes that you'll get the masses of the clueless to believe it.
Second, determining whether or not a resident of Mexico with a LEGAL work visa will probably be considered on an individual basis, with consideration giving to whether that person actually did pay into our tax system, which is frankly highly doubtful. Those are points that ultimately will need to be worked out, and
not points that are major enough in context to determine the character of the broader bill.
